Finally, A Fatwa On Suicide Bombings
"Whoever kills a human being ... then it is as though he has killed all mankind; and whoever saves a human life it is as though he had saved all mankind."
-- Gul Mohammad, quoting the Koran
British Muslim leaders have issued a fatwa on suicide bombings.
OTOH, a fatwa is just a "formal legal opinion", but seeing as how Salman Rushdie has been living in fear for his life because of a "formal legal opinion" issued over a novel, it's about time a "formal legal opinion" was issued over mass murder and the slaughter of innocents.
Avalanches start slow, so let's see when the rest of the Muslim world heeds the fatwa issued in Britain. They must, if they want to reclaim their religion and way of life from the extremists. It's the only effective way the so-called war on terrorism will be won.
